Trump Media & Technology Group Files Two New Crypto ETF Proposals After SEC Delay

Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) has filed updated proposals with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for two new cryptocy exchange-traded funds (ETFs), aiming to push forward after a previous regulatory delay.

The filings outline plans for two distinct ETF products under the Truth Social Funds banner:

  1. Truth Social Bitcoin and Ether ETF — designed to provide investors with regulated exposure to the two largest digital assets, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).

  2. Truth Social Cronos Yield Maximizer ETF — focused on the Cronos (CRO) token, the native asset of the Crypto.com blockchain, with a structure intended to incorporate staking-based yield on the token.

These revised proposals follow an earlier SEC postponement of the company’s crypto ETF ambitions, and come as TMTG seeks to address regulatory concerns while expanding its presence in regulated digital asset investment products.

Partnerships and Structure

In the new filings, TMTG has appointed Yorkville America Equities as investment adviser for both funds, and plans to work with Crypto.com — which will provide custody, liquidity and staking infrastructure tied to the Cronos-related product.

Both ETFs are structured to include staking rewards, potentially offering yield on underlying assets as part of their value proposition, and are expected to carry an annual management fee of roughly 0.95 %.

Why It Matters

A successful SEC approval of these launches could make Trump Media one of the few firms to offer regulated crypto ETFs focused not only on Bitcoin and Ethereum — which have seen significant institutional interest — but also on newer network tokens such as CRO, tying mainstream investment products to staking returns and broader digital asset access. The proposals are now under review, and timing for potential approval or next steps has not yet been disclosed by the commission.
